    André Gomes

    A grand total of 1 key pass and 1 chance created in 11 league appearances. That's simply not good enough for someone who tries to be so involved going forward. In comparison Denis has 7 and 9 respectively with fewer minutes. Oh, and Denis wins more aerial duels pr. 90 than Gomes.

    Valverde: "Team is committed"

    It really seems that he's earned the team's affection. I was watching a training video and he was joking around with them. The whole atmosphere and spirit seemed much more relaxed and earnest than with Lucho.

    Cr150

    I'm sorta looking forward to the day when players and coaches from this generation are retired and the honest retrospective opinions of this guy vs Messi come out. When they've both hung up their boots, that's when the legacy is formed. People will remember and talk about the magic and the...

    Cr150

    I don't think he looks significantly worse than in the last 3-4 years. He's is just finally getting exposed now without the proper service.

    Paulinho

    I can appreciate the his qualities and acknowledge the positives and his performances. I'm saying that there's a tendency to ignore what he lacks and the negatives in his performances. Of course they aren't as obvious, but there's just so many times where he doesn't have the ability to do the...

    Paulinho

    I thought he was really average against Real and looked quite bad in some situations.

    Paulinho

    It's the implicit thought behind advocating that he should be a consistent starter though, no?

    Paulinho

    Yes, he can run deep and has a nose for goals, but I don't understand the notion that there isn't a midfielder out there who can do that plus have an actual constructive role in the rest of our game.

    Lliga | Round 19: Real Sociedad - FC Barcelona 2-4

    If they go all out in their pressing game, that midfield isn't going to be able to hold on to anything. And with so little creative threat or even pace in our attack, there's no reason why they shouldn't do that.

    Yerry Mina

    Damn, we're gonna be beasts in the air. Soon I won't have to suffer mini heart attacks at every corner against us anymore.

    Yerry Mina

    The dance is fucking hilarious and not nearly as obnoxious as the Neymar/Alves stuff.

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    Yeah, he just needs to fire those hamstrings at 100% in training as well. Otherwise he will overload them once he does it in games. It takes some time to learn.

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    Anyone who knows that once you come back from a serious hamstring injury, you are incredibly conscious of any discomfort there. You insinctively hold yourself back just a bit in training and once you go 100% in games, you are very susceptible to overloading it and straining it. It might be a...

    Luis Suárez

    He's improving but I still hope he will move in more centrally and roam the area. That's where his goals will come from anyway.

    André Gomes

    I believe in him being totally out of his depth with absolutely no redeeming qualities.

    11 - Ousmane Dembélé - V1

    I think his own mentality will be key. He needs to assert himself in a creator role and take real responsibility for the essence of this team's identity, like Neymar did. If he gets intimidated by Messi's presence or something and doesn't engage properly in our core game, we won't see any of his...

    Sergi Roberto

    Really really really think he should start in midfield. When plays there, his general running off the ball is such a clear juxtaposition to that of Iniesta and Rakitic. The reason why we can't play out from back is because these guys give up on even trying if the opponent puts a little pressure...

    Rafinha Alcantara

    His last big injury took quite a big toll on his physique. He lost his main trait as a youth prospect, which was his charging runs and dribbling in the midfield to start an attack. He could still do it, sorta, before this injury but his lack of speed put a big restraint on it. It rarely amounted...

    14 - Javier Mascherano

    Masch isn't just better than Pique in 1v1 situations, he's much much better.

    Luis Suárez

    He spends a lot of energy in that crazy pressure mode, but you're just one hundred percent sure he's gonna foul someone before it ever amounts to something so it's pretty much just a waste.
